ECG / EKG Rhythm Step-by-Step

An ECG stands for an "electrocardiogram," which is a test that measures and records the electrical activity of the heart. It is used by doctors to obtain important diagnostic information surrounding cardiovascular and/or respiratory conditions. Fortunately, it is a simple and non-invasive procedure that requires very little preparation.

An electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) is a test that records the electrical activity of your heart. This test can help determine the cause of symptoms you might be having or check the overall health of your heart. Reading a basic EKG is not that hard. However, you should always let your doctor or medical professional properly read your EKG and diagnose you.

EKG: EKG Interpretation Made Easy: A Complete Step-By-Step Guide to 12-Lead EKG/ECG Interpretation & Arrhythmias

Master Your EKG Interpretation With This Comprehensive Guide!

Systematic Approaches and Key Steps for All Areas of Interpretation

The purpose of this guide is to teach you to spot and accurately interpret the abnormalities that can occur on the EKG. By the end of the guide, you will be able to confidently navigate and interpret the complex road map of electrical activity and quickly evaluate all the main pointers correctly. This will put you on a steady path to being able to recognize abnormalities early and provide the best care for your patients!
